You haven't answered my question, have you any kids, do they attend school?

By the way most schools don't allow cars into it, unless you are a member of staff, even buses aren't allowed in, probably because no school could cope with that amount of traffic and also for health and safety reasons for the children, so where would you want the parents to park to collect their kids?

I was always told that if you suffer from hayfever the best thing you can do is to get some local honey - has to be local made mind, and take a spoonful of it every day for 6 weeks. Its got something to do with your local bees picking up the pollen that is causing you to suffer from hayfever.  You take a little dose of it every day and your body eventually builds immunity to it.

It won't help straight away, but if it helps in the long run then its worth a shot!

This is also going to sound weird, but if you put a little bit of vaseline inside the nostrils, it acts as a barrier and can stop the pollen getting through.  Should reduce some of the symptoms!

Cheers Alco, i am going to try both

Beconase nasal spray always does the business for me.  At least it's going straight into the nose and head instead of swallowing a tablet that goes down into your stomach to be broken down first.  Though when you use it, you get a taste of flowers in the back of your mouth, like eating perfume.

How do you eat perfume? I prefer to drink it. :D

People with hayfever grind my gears, is there anything more annoying than listening to someone sneezing 20 times in a row or sniffle the same snot up their noses 100 times a day

Bet you don't use your indicators either? 
from what I see most people don't use indicators.

Especially mothers dropping their little precious off to school..
Pulling into a space or pulling out of one or sometimes even when they just abandon the car right in the middle of the road,not a sign of a indicator from any of them..
I don't know what ever happened to walking your kid to school,or put them on a bus even.

From what i can see, mothers dropping kids off to school- they are all driving people carriers.  It must be an unwritten law that if you have 2 or more children you need a people carrier or else a big f**k off jeep/landrover.

Dunno how the 6 of us used to do in our vauxhall estate....

We got 18 into the back of black taxi outside the Bot one night.  Taxi driver said he'll take as many as can fit in..
